Check the gcc man page. It's in there.

Hi,

I installed cygwin on Windows NT system and am using it to rebuild GNU GCC
and BINUTILS
(in bash) as a cross compiler for target=mips-idt-ecoff. After much work, I
have created a working
cross-compiler and utilities. I have one problem. gcc, as, and the other
executables
when run outside of bash expect to write temporary files to
/cygdrive/c/TEMP. I temporarily
worked around the by physically creating these directories on c:\. However,
if I am building
on a different drive, say d:\ , then it tries to find /cygdrive/c/TEMP on
d:\ and it doesn't exist. I don't want to create /cygdrive/c/TEMP on every
drive that
I'm building on. Is there a way to tell the executables (environment
variable or via recompiling)
to look explicitly in c:\TEMP even though I'm building on d:\?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Tom Calabris
